The modern kitchen often needs to fulfil a variety of roles, while still appearing sleek and uncluttered.

This family kitchen does just that, providing space on a large central island for meal preparation to be carried out at the same time as homework, in an aesthetically warm and functional space.

The practicality of the design was one reason it received the Best Modern Kitchen Award from Hadco, a feat all the more noteworthy because it was for Hammersmith designers Jenny and Eric Rothman's own home.

Part of the reason for the success of this design lies in the large central island, which can be used for homework at the same time as food preperation. The kitchen is open to the dining and family rooms, making it a social as well as functional space

"Most designers have a tendency to over-think their personal spaces, so this was a challenge. Opening the kitchen to the family and dining rooms allows us to dine together, as well as interact while preparing meals," says Jenny Rothman.

The island is wrapped in raw concrete for texture. All the cabinetry units have been constructed so as to appear to float, giving a lightweight look to the kitchen. Rich mahogany slab doors with centrally placed handles give a simple, uncomplicated appearance to the space, balanced against the geometric patterns of the oversized stacked-tile backsplash.

Viking appliances were chosen for visual impact as well as functionality.

"The stillness of the kitchen counteracts the activity of everyday life this was the balancing effect we wanted to achieve," says Eric Rothman.
